Undo problem
I'm working with various concert pitch scores, rearranging and transposing them for guitar and Bb saxophone, (soprano & tenor). I'm getting confused with the interaction between the 'concert pitch' button, the 'staff properties/change instrument' function and the 'transpose' function. Rather than flog though all the combinations and permutations I've got into a mess with, could I ask simply what is the best, (right?) way to transpose the attached opening bar of 'Once In A While' which is in concert Eb with the 'concert pitch' button activated in MS, to put the guitar in concert F and transpose the voice staff for Bb sax in G?
Thanks...

I started with Concert Pitch off.
1. Go into the transpose dialogue and transpose the whole score up 2 semitones to F
2. Right click the Voice Stave and choose Stave Properties
3. Click the Change Instrument button
4. Navigate your way to soprano saxophone, select and hit OK
You will find the transposition to G is done for you.
